Though, maybe a better example would be 
http://people.apache.org/map.html?project=Apache%20OFBiz ;o)

Note that to have these icons on the map we give our lat. long.

Hi Chris,

It was a long time :o), thanks for comments

I need them to use with Google Map. To do something like http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/examples/marker-simple.html
you can see there map.setCenter(new GLatLng(37.4419, -122.1419), 13);

Hopefully I will be able to do something general enough to be reusable (should 
not be too hard, the tough part is already done by
Google)

I wasn't going to comment on this because I don't think I have the time 
available to see the discussion through to the end, but
after reading David's "Data Model Changes Post", I'll toss my two cents about 
this.

What are you wanting to ultimately do with Lat/Long? From my experience with GeoServer earlier this year, storing Lat/Long values
is rather inconvenient when doing computations and placing points (and 
polygons) on Maps.  It was much more convenient to store
these points in the manner prescribed by postgis and using the methods that are provided in those kinds of packages. Also, as far as data modeling, it's somewhat innacurate (although depending on your application, possibly within acceptable bounds) to refer to
an address as a point that has the specificity you'd be assigning.

I will need to add Latitude and Longitude fields in PostalAdress. Could this be 
a change commited ?
I will also need to add a type PHONE_HOTLINE in ContactMechPurposeType.

Else, of course I will use

Thanks

Jacques
